SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- If you want to come in from the cold, artist Niki Dellios has organized a show of her work. "Frost and Stars: An Exhibition" is at bc Restaurant, 247 W. Fayette St., Syracuse, through Friday. The show features Dellios' mixed media paintings. The exhibition can be seen during restaurant hours, from 5 to 9 p.m.

The Syracuse native works with acrylics, fiber and synthetic materials. "My type of painting resembles land art, in that I repeatedly saturate the piece with water, using no brushes, or any type of tools, and allow the water to take its own shape, so that, over time, the surface of the canvas comes to resemble various land forms. In essence, this technique resembles real precipitation and creates a similar effect, to the corrosion produced by rain," she wrote in an email.
